The Weaving Healthy Families Program

The Weaving Healthy Families program is created from integrating the widely disseminated, ecological, innovative, and culturally grounded Framework of Historical Oppression, Resilience, and Transcendence (FHORT) with the the Celebrating Families! evidenced-based program (EBP). The goal of this program is to reduce and postpone Alcohol and other Drug (AOD) use, decrease and prevent violence in families, and promote resilience and wellness (including mental health) among NA adults and youth. This intervention seeks to promote wellness by targeting key behavioral (AOD), mental/emotional (emotional regulation/anger management, cognitions, resilience), social and familial (healthy and safe relationships, the family environment, and parenting), cultural (values, traditions), and physical (nutrition) factors.
